Hi My Name is Steffen

a.k.a. certifiedbutterflyboy

I'm a creative entrepreneur, engineer, festival lover, and lifelong believer in making life a little more interesting.

I've always been fascinated by how things work, how people experience the world, and how small ideas can turn into something much bigger. My background is in chemical engineering, but I've never been particularly interested in staying inside one box. I've spent the last several years bouncing between engineering, entrepreneurship, product design, music, festivals, wellness, and whatever else sparks my curiosity.

Somewhere along the way, I realized that all of these seemingly unrelated interests actually have something in common: I want to help people experience more of life.

Why I Make Things

Good Supplements and Encore Festival Solutions are two separate ventures, but both come from the same place.

Good Supplements was born from my interest in wellness, longevity, and finding simple ways to support the body and mind through everyday life.

Encore Festival Solutions came from a much more specific problem: I love music and festivals, but I also really care about protecting my hearing.

I couldn't find hearing protection that felt like it belonged in the festival environment, so I decided to make it myself.

That idea eventually became GloBuds, reusable light-up ear plugs designed to protect your hearing while adding a little personality to the experience. What started as an idea around festivals grew into a product that has been featured in Forbes and has found its way into the hands, ears, and rave kits of people who want to protect their hearing without hiding from the fun.

My Mission

At the center of everything I make is a pretty simple philosophy:

Take care of yourself so you can experience more of life.

Protect your hearing. Take care of your body. Stay curious. Build things. Dance until sunrise. Chase the weird idea. Go outside your comfort zone. Make memories.

Wellness shouldn't mean removing everything that makes life exciting. To me, it's about taking care of the body and mind that allow you to enjoy all of it.

More Than Products

I'm also a big believer in creativity, connection, and letting people be unapologetically themselves.

I'm deeply passionate about hearing protection, longevity, creativity, and the freedom to be unapologetically yourself. I believe in light over negativity, connection over judgment, and creating spaces where people can show up exactly as they are.

Whether you're at a festival surrounded by your rave family, working on something you're passionate about, traveling somewhere you've never been, or just trying to feel a little better in your everyday life, I want the things I create to add something positive to the experience.

 

What's Next

I'm constantly experimenting with new ideas, products, experiences, and ways to make everyday life a little healthier, more creative, and more enjoyable.

If something solves a problem, makes people smile, protects something important, or helps someone get a little more out of their experience, I'm interested.

Thanks for being here and being part of the journey.

Protect your hearing. Take care of your body. Stay curious. Live fully.

Peace, Love, Unity & Respect.
